I don't think I ever displayed my Line-X from a couple months back!

I want nothing to do with the 6.4 or whatever comes next- so I'm making this truck last.

That looks good. Did you do it yourself or have it done somewere? I have some really bad rock chips in the same areas that line-x ed.

i like it !

I'd be interested in hearing how you
like it long term...specifically if it
holds the shine or traps the dust/dirt
and becomes dull...

Not a DYI! It would never look that good if I did it. It was done at Line-X in Brighton, MI. I know someone will ask so here's the cost. 980$ with what you see done. If I had them wrap around the doors to the inside and do the jams it would have been $1100. If I had gone with standard black it would have been 700. It seemed fair to me since a bedliner is 5-600$ & this takes a 1-1.5days where a bed liner can be done in a couple hours. After spending $2200 on the wife's truck to correct the rust that started with stone chips It was easy to justify.

I'll update on the durability if there is anything to report later. So far the only issue I've had is the additive I used over the winter spilled down the side once and is taking a while for the stain to fade.

nice! At first you're like -- "theres something different about that truck"

then you look closer and boom - "ahhh, I seee" :)

Looks good and defiantely curious if it fades much or stands up to abuse..

I thought line-ex was supposed to resist staining, etc, from chemicals?

The stain started out bad but seems to be fading and going back to it's original look. I think it will go away.
